Mr. Video. It brings me joy seeing you with your eyes closed and see in your face how you savor every song you listen to. You make me laugh and smile everytime.

I can’t count how many times I’ve sang this song and their other song Gold! Tony Hadley’s voice is so smooth and dreamy. ❤️

Those two guys who popped out of nowhere in perfect harmony are the Kemp brothers, Gary on piano and Martin on guitar. They went on to have pretty high profile acting careers, mostly in the UK.

Hardly any 80s song seemed to come without a saxophone. I´ve been having saxophobia since ;) Dude has a great voice, that´s a fact.

Man we need to move backwards a few years for a bit. How bout some Jefferson Airplane, or some Steppenwolf or If you want to stay mellow some Blood Sweat and Tears. Something

7:20 This song is much older than "I want it that way" so you know who would have copied who... but it's probably just the same chord progression

Yesss! Mr. Video I was waiting for you to do a reaction to this song. One of my favorites in the 80s so smooth. Brought back memories! Of those hot summer days in the 80s with this song playing on the radio air waves. #80s4life ❤❤❤❤

"To cut a long story short" . Another banger from this band . Much more upbeat and catchy .

@nuniabidnez1182 3 года назад

You know how sometimes a band can be really talented and have loads of great music but for whatever reason, you just can't get into it? That's Spandau Ballet for me. Glad you enjoyed it though.

If you're going to make a reference to "listen to Marvin (Gaye) all night long", you had better be smooth.

I used to hate this stuff in the 80s but don’t mind it now,reminds me of certain things from back in the day. I was driving in Italy a few years ago and would hear songs like this on English music stations so now it reminds me of those fun days driving through Tuscany ☺️. Greetings from British Columbia 🇨🇦

Yeah! The closest but far less successful rivals to Duran Duran, and somehow these never took off in the US from what I understand. But this song is one of those sampled by PM Dawn in the early 90s in Set Adrift On Memory Bliss, with their mate George Michael's song (RIP my angel) Father Figure being sampled in their Looking Through Patient Eyes. I used to love Spandau, but this song for all it's glory was one of those that was SOOOOO overplayed on the radio and everywhere that I ended up tired of hearing it. Beyond The Barricades, Gold and Only When You Leave are good ones from the. Also, it was a 4 man band and included brothers Martin and Gary Kemp both of whom have had stints as actors, Gary was Whitney's (RIP) slimy agent in The Bodyguard! TFS :)

Martin Kemp is now established as an actor rather than a musician these days and is still unbelievably gorgeous, he survived two bouts of brain tumours and has been happily married to Shirlie, a backing singer of Wham (George Michael) and the group Pepsie and Shirlie, for 32 years..(lucky girl.. ) :)

this is one of my favorite groups from the 80's love this song. there are a pair of brothers in the band one is on piano the other one is playing the white guitar. the one playing guitar was Whitney Houston's manager in the movie the Bodyguard! the lead singer name is Tony!
